Description:

First English edition. Translated by Charles Boner. Publisher's original green cloth with gilt titles to the spine. All edges gilt. Illustrated with four full page plates after Otto Speckter, and with wood-engravings in the text. A lovely near fine copy showing only the lightest of rubbing to the cloth extremities. The contents are entirely complete with a previous owner's inscription to the top edge of the front free endpaper. The plates are spotted, otherwise clean throughout. A remarkable example.
